Results of Experimental Studies on Electric Corona Gas Discharge of Bulgarian Lavender Oil

The study's aim was to create a brightness histogram based on the electrical effects of a 1% solution of lavender essential oil dissolved with 5% ethyl alcohol in distilled water compared to a control sample of 5% ethyl alcohol in distilled water.Corona gas discharge (CGD) is a glowing corona with a bluish color that appears because of a high concentration of ions and electrons.The corona discharge is connected to ionization processes in the gas phase, which depend on the electric field and gas composition.CGD occurs in laboratory conditions.Corona can have a positive or negative charge.Both types are used for wastewater cleaning, fruit juice sterilization, surface disinfecting, and medicine.A high-voltage electrode usually ranges from 3 to 30 kV.The frequency range was from 10 to 20 kHz.The electric current is commonly in mA.Ignatov et al. have studied signal power ranges from one to two-tenths of a watt.Antonov et al. have shown that CGD parameters depend on the object's dielectric permittivity, underscoring the importance of this research.The work of Pesotskaya et al. is also of significance to this study.It indicates that BH can be created with black-white registration and that brightness is linked with dielectric permittivity.This finding is particularly relevant to this research about the effects of CGD on lavender oil (LO) from the Lavandula angustifolia mill., as it provided a method for quantifying observed changes in brightness.The formula is Y = Cε, where Y is brightness, C is coefficient and ε is dielectric permittivity.
